Do you get much atmosphere sitting in your house? Strangely enough I find very little in mine *scratching head*
a great Indian friend of mine is forever trying to get me to go to India for a holiday with him .... I'll go anywhere but the sub-continent with him ... I think there should be a GP in Alaska, that would be interesting
If you go 7 star and never leave the hotel, you will do just fine. Sell your house to fund it first though, India hasn't been a cheap destination for quite a while.
good mate of mine went there for 3 months 20 years ago, was porky like me, came back 30-40kgs lighter, told me I should not go there, said I can't handle going to Blacktown so I would be distraught at the situation in India. I believe there is still poverty but a lot of affluence has popped up as well
The gap between the rich and the poor is wider than in any other place that I have seen. I have been going since 1990 and the affluence of the middle class has just exploded from then until now. The country has millions of millionaires- literally. The middle class routinely employ "servants" which sounds a bit much; but labour is cheap. The really wealthy are unbelievably rich. I remember driving past the Tata family compound which was pretty much an entire city block in one of Indias largest cities. The poor are unbelievably poor by our standards. There is no social welfare system, no medicare system, no public housing etc, etc. The poor truly have little besides the shirts on their back. It is quite confronting for your average Westerner.
I experienced the same environment while living in Malaysia. I still have the picture of an old man walking down the street in Muar with his left foot pointing backwards. Would be good for some of the whingers in this country to go and see life where there is no welfare. Not that I wish that on anyone. Truly terrible as you say, gotta see it to believe it. This IS the lucky country.
